To Mom

To MOM

Mother, I have seen you

Through the times, good and bad

I have heard your voice

Praying to almighty Lord
To give your daughter the strength

I have felt the love in your heart
Even when I had spoken many a word

Cruel as a sword sharp

Never meaning to pain you

All the while, knowing deep

that unconditional was your love for me.
I Have seen the tears in your eyes

When the one who was hurt was me

I have seen the glimmer of hope shine through you

When the one who was laughing was me

I have seen the helpless tears,

When the one struggling was me

All these years

I realised not true love

I realised not that God was but near

I realised not what you were trying to make me hear.
But now I do

You love me throughout my selfishness

You held me throughout my pain

You kissed me throughout my tears

You adored me through my tantrums

You enjoyed me thought my weirdness

You now is the time

Mother, I must tell you

that you would be the one always

Though of when I need comfort and Love

For Mother, You blessed me

And today I want you to know how much I LOVE YOU.
